WESTERN NEW YORK FORECAST SUMMARY Forecast Discussion for BUF NWS Office 
SYNOPSIS... Broad weak low pressure over over the Ohio Valley and
Mid-Atlantic this afternoon will gradually shift east before stalling along
the Delmarva Peninsula Thursday, resulting in occasional across the region
this afternoon through Thursday. A few scattered thunderstorms will be
possible Thursday afternoon. An occluded front will then lift northeast
across the region early Friday, supporting the continued chances for
showers and thunderstorms. Low pressure associated with the occluded front
will then reside across the Great Lakes through the weekend supporting
continued chances for showers. While this all sounds pessimistic, should
note that the rest of the week and weekend will have periods of dry time.
